"By The Book"
A Shakespeare Authorship Quarterly Book Club
Together we Read 4 Books per Year!
10 weeks to Buy the Book & Read it.
Summer 2025
O, sir, we quarrel in print by the book, as you have books for good manners. I will name you the degrees. The first, the Retort Courteous; the second, the Quip Modest; the third, the Reply Churlish;
-- Touchstone, from As You Like It
Please join us for a summer read of the Tragedie of Mariam, a Shakespeare era play with a woman's name listed as the author. Scholars agree that it is a theater piece of import and bears a striking resemblance to the work of the author known as Shakespeare.
​​​​​​
We will begin the ongoing group email on July 13th, and have Zoom read alouds of each act. We'll end with a final Zoom get-together in September.
​
It's a community, not a class so no pressure to do it perfectly. Fall behind or skim ahead!
Note, you must participate to the best of your ability from the start in order to attend the final Zoom with our guest speaker.
